The waterfall-like chandelier on the ceiling was twinkling, and every diamond on it seemed to reflect the wonderful expressions of everyone present.
Someone retreated quietly.
Damn, this is too exciting. I just experienced the distortion, and the next second someone wants to question the captain of the Dawn Blade.
By destiny, that doesn't even give the speakers face.
"Why bother……"
Cheng Tianming shook his head again, with a trace of helplessness, a trace of loss, and a trace of regret flashing through his deep eyes.
Meng Chengfei captured this keenly. He stood there, clenching his hands and trembling all over.
He seemed to see the other person, who was no longer as high-spirited, brave and good at fighting as before.
The body was still majestic and the momentum was still strong, but Meng Chengfei was shocked to find that the captain's soul was already old.
Before a person gets old, his heart is already failing.
The commander-in-chief back then was someone who dared to swing a big ax and smash down the door of the highest council for the sake of a team member.
In order to recover the bones of the team members, he dared to go deep into the frontline restricted area, where the way of heaven was distorted by more than 50%.
But when he saw her ten years later, he felt infinite sadness and a deep sense of powerlessness.
If it were in the past, even if Duke Han Xi was his good friend, he would kill his relatives out of justice.
Rules are rules.
Principles are principles.
But now, this top combat power in the floating city has compromised with the nobles.
"Xiao Meng, you have experienced a lot in these years. You should understand that the current situation is chaotic. For the sake of the overall situation, some things must be stabilized first. The floating city cannot withstand too much turmoil due to internal and external troubles."
The old man's voice had a hint of hoarseness, as if he was speaking to Meng Chengfei, but also to everyone.
"This matter is over here."
"What if I don't?"
For the first time, Xu Ye saw the gentle and elegant captain with a fierce look in his eyes, as if he had made some decision.
That kind of emotion deeply affected me.
He suddenly had a bad premonition.
"You can try it."
At this moment, a group of people walked in from the door, the leader of which was none other than Duke Han Xi in a suit and leather shoes, wearing a silver rose on his chest.
Everyone's expressions changed again.
This Duke ranks first among the twenty silver nobles, both in terms of reputation and status.
"Sequence 7... tsk tsk, this new old boy is quite capable. He has a good show today." The bandit master teased, "And, for some reason, I feel that your captain's aura is a bit weird."
Xu Ye was heartbroken.
He squatted at the corner of the stairs on the third and second floors and found the Duke. He first nodded to the captain and smiled, then looked at the chandelier, which was where his daughter died.
Then, he seemed to be looking at Meng Chengfei, but his eyes moved past him without any trace, and landed vaguely on the belly of Sun Xiufei, who was standing behind the dining table, still looking confused and frightened.
What does he mean?
Before he had time to think, his attention was quickly diverted.
Duke Han Xi glanced at Meng Chengfei with a slightly arrogant look: "Do you want to use the Scarlet Eye to die with us? Although you are in control of the Scarlet Eye now, we have found it in advance just in case.
candidate."
"When you activate the Scarlet Eye, even an ordinary person with a pistol can easily kill you."
Meng Chengfei was silent.
He Li stood beside him.
Duke Han Xi sneered: "Do you really think we don't know about the things you have done over the years? A few months ago, Darren disappeared. Later we found his body. He was hung from an electric fan.
Beat him to death."
"Surveillance shows that you were injured due to a Level 3 aberration incident and were hospitalized, but you think I don't know that you possess a C-level taboo item [Re-Engraving Stone], and you used it to create a...
Your identical clone, and then you yourself, went to kill Darren, the poor bronze noble."
Everyone cooperated and took a breath of air.
Xu Ye was moved.
Because he knew that the Duke was telling the truth.
The captain I saw in the Forbidden Area was his clone.
Meng Chengfei did not avoid the other party's eyes at all: "Darren? Poor? He proposed to kill Xu Ye at the meeting a few months ago, and then, after Xu Ye became a member of my team, he sent someone to ambush. Although
He missed it...and he is a member of the Eternal Holy See."
Duke Han Xi stroked the silver rose on his chest with his fingers and said with a serious face: "Whether he is a member of the Eternal Holy See should be decided by the Inquisition, not by you using your private actions. Even if we give you some rights, you should not do this.
Cruel treatment of a nobleman."
"Meng Chengfei, you have crossed the line."
"Your Majesty the Duke, didn't you cross the line? Didn't you leak the information about Team 9 to the Eternal Holy See for your own selfish gain?!"
"As I said before, you have no evidence." Duke Han Xi said calmly.
There is no need for him to get angry when facing an ant.
Meng Chengfei had a sad look on his face, and he looked at the captain pleadingly.
Cheng Tianming squinted his eyes and shook his head: "Xiao Meng, there are many things to do tonight. Let's stop this."
boom!
These words hit Meng Chengfei like thunder.
He took a few steps back, and almost fell to the ground if He Li hadn't caught him quickly with his quick eyesight and quick hands.
Holding his hat, the desolate middle-aged man looked at the two people in front of him as if he was lost.
He knew that the captain had already compromised.
Maybe he was injured, maybe his confidence had changed... In short, the mountain on top of him, the person he had been waiting for for ten years, suddenly collapsed at this moment.
Accepting fate, you must also accept your fate.
He said with a decadent, almost defeated tone and a wry smile: "Miss Ying'er is fine now. He is innocent. We will not harm her. I will have someone send her back later."
After saying these words, Xu Ye discovered that the captain seemed to have aged by more than ten years.
Cheng Tianming smiled happily: "It's good that he's not here. Something big will happen tonight."
The old man looked up.
Suddenly, everyone discovered that in the silent air, in the night sky outside the villa, there was a mechanical roar.
"Xiao Meng, Xiao He, aren't you looking for revenge from the Eternal Holy See? I received news that they are here tonight to kill me."
"The preparations are quite good."
Hearing this, Meng Chengfei's face twitched, and he suddenly raised his head, as if he wanted to see through the top of the villa.
His face changed slightly, and he continued: "Captain, we actually found some information about the Eternal Holy See. Back then, you killed their Bishop Ace of Spades, and most of their members were almost dead, but the ceremony was not interrupted.
.”
"Ten years ago, the death of hundreds of thousands of people in Yeling City was just the first part of the ritual..."
At this moment, not only Duke Han Xi, but also Cheng Tianming's expression became solemn.
The ancient and evil ritual has not been interrupted and continues to this day?
Xu Ye took a deep breath. He seemed to see hundreds of thousands of dead souls lingering in the sky above Yeling City, lingering in everyone's heart.
They are waiting for the final ceremony.
But at this moment, Xu Ye's heart suddenly started to beat.
…
There was no sound outside the villa.
Thick dark clouds covered the sky, and also covered the red moon.
It started to rain lightly, very small drops of rain.
Gu Muhan, wearing a cowboy hat and denim jacket, was sitting silently under a big tree not far from the villa, with a painting in front of him.
On the painting, it is Villa No. 1.
"Swiss, swiss, swish!"
"got windy?"
Gu Muhan straightened his cowboy hat, looked up at the sky with a smile on his face.
From the dark clouds, a huge object was poked out. It was a monster-like aeroboat about a hundred meters long, covered in black paint.
It is hidden in the dark clouds, hidden in the darkness, without the red moon, it is mixed with the night, even invisible to the naked eye, and can only be perceived with inspiration.
"It's been ten years...I saw the dark aerostat again. The last time I saw it, I was still a member of the first team, and now I am the captain of the second team."
He stood up with serious eyes.
"Although the dark aerospace craft is not as good as the starships in the floating city, it is smaller, more flexible, and easier to start. With one shot, this area will probably be razed to the ground. In the villa, except for the captain and the old man,
The Duke, and everyone else, will probably die."
boom!
Just as he was thinking, a dark muzzle was pointed at the villa, and without hesitation, he fired a shot.
